6th Floor Kitchen [Sunday Evening]

[longislandiceme]

So, Charlotte and Henry showing up at Sookie's hotel room yesterday had been... a pleasant surprise. Eventually, of course, they'd wheedled Sookie into agreeing to bake some cookies.

Which meant traipsing back to the dorms for a bit, because a hotel room kitchenette wasn't quite enough space for this sort of thing- especially with two youngsters (and Bobby) underfoot.

"Chocolate chocolate chips!" Henry voiced his opinion of what should be made.

"With butterscotch," Charlotte added.

"Butterscotch and chocolate?" Sookie asked, eyes wide. "Do you think we can make cookies big enough to have both?"

She kind of loved this weekend.

"The biggerest cookies ever!" Henry said, nodding.

"Big as you?" she asked, reaching out to tickle him.

The tickling was met with giggleshrieks as he tried (and failed) to dodge out of the way. "Big as my head, yeah!"

"Your whole head?" Sookie asked in amazement. She looked to Charlotte. "Think we can make a cookie as big as your brother's big head?"

"I dunno," Charlotte pretended to think about it. "S'pretty big. Like a giant balloon," she said teasingly.

"Or a beach ball."

Sookie, be nice to your children.

"Not a beach ball!" Henry squealed, clapping his hands to his head and running over to Bobby. "Daaaaaad, tell 'em my head's not a beach ball."

"Are you sure?" Bobby said solemnly, reaching out to give Henry a gentle poke in the middle of his forehead. "Maybe we should check, to be safe."

"Noooo!" Henry shrieked, giggling, and ran over to hide behind the couch. "No checking!"

[longislandiceme]

"He may have a point," Bobby said to Sookie. "I've never met a beach ball with legs, after all."

"Fair," Sookie agreed. "Little boys who hide, though, don't get to lick the bowl."

That brought Henry scurrying over, and Sookie surrendered the bowl to him and Charlotte.

She quietly stole over and smilingly offered Bobby the spatula while they were occupied, though.

She knew him so well. "Bet you're really glad you managed to beg off work now, huh?"

As far as weird weekends went, this one was totally his favorite.

"I figured that if Sam gives me a hard time when I get back, I'll show him pictures," Sookie decided. "He's a soft touch."

Duh. Considering she got work off all the time.

[longislandiceme]

"I think he'd let you have the day off if you stubbed your toe," Bobby said. Well. Maybe not quite that much of a soft touch. Possibly.

"I might have to try that one," Sookie mused.

[longislandiceme]

"Dare you to."

Way to set an example of mature, grown-up behavior in front of your children, Bobby.
